Jhin Theory

I have a theory about Jhin and his mask. When Jhin is killed inside of the game is falls to his knees and reaches for his mask that is rising up and up until is pops out of existence and Jhin slumps over. I believe that the mask is the only thing keeping Jhin alive, he freaks out when the mask starts to float up and then he slumps over and dies when it pops out, either his mask is magical or maybe he has some sort of infused scientry inside the maks that keeps him alive. I personally think that jhin may of peen a stage hand and then found the mask and went insane, it made him become a serial killer and since he was into the arts the mask to that to the extreme and he became Jhin. The mask might've deformed him or maybe it forced him to hide his body and to never take the mask off. That is my theory and I hope you guys can give good feedback if not that's fine too.

((Game isn't canon.))

My mask is a lot of things. Sometimes, it is that enchanted piece, held on by magic and will. Sometimes, it is my own face. I do not feel and express emotions like most do, so I contort my face into, say, a mask of concern. Happiness. Sadness. It is part of being a brilliant actor, after all. Sometimes, if I find my mask is not genuine enough, I will find a more suitable one. For example, that smile you wear so often looks much more genuine than my own.

You see, my dear, it would be impossible for the mask to have such an effect on me. It is part of my outfit given to me by the Cabal for my performances. It by no means drove me to madness. I have been creating works of art long before I was captured and released. You also appear to be under the impression that I am deformed in some way. This is not so. I am an ordinary man, my self loathing coming from the fact that my appearance, despite my best efforts, is not perfect. I can melt away into a crowd with ease. A deformity would make that much harder, wouldn't you agree?

Simply put, my mask is but a mask. It may not keep me alive, but I can not live without it. It is a part of my identity as an artist.

Jhin's my favorite character in the game and I legitimately hope that Riot does something cool with him.

Also, one of his quotes: "Which is the lie? The mask, or my face?"

HE takes the mask off in his story and some lady sees his face. He's actually just disfigured and is obsessed with beauty so he hides his face
